Travel Guide

Outdoor Recreation

Hit the surf at Dewey Beach for skimboarding or go parasailing for a bird’s-eye view of the water. Thrill seekers can get a similar high-flying adventure by zip lining through Lums Pond State Park on a Go Ape Treetop Adventure Course. If you get a thrill from kayaking and canoing scenic waterways, visit Trap Pond State Park to explore the most northern point for Baldcypress Trees.

If bird watching is more your speed, spot some of the 400-plus species at Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge. Or if your idea of outdoor recreational fun is improving your golf game tee off at a championship golf course.

Of course, Cape Henlopen State Park is a traveler favorite with drive on beaches and surf fishing plus, a disc golf course along the sandy dunes. Wondering where to go camping in Delaware? Try Killens Pond State Park, where you can even go “glamping” in rental cabins or cool off at its water park featuring thrilling slides, toddler splash areas and a zero-entry pool.

For a unique way to discover new adventures, travel the Delaware Outdoor Trail, a collection of more than 60 activities at over 40 statewide locations, ranging from the rolling hills of Delaware’s wooded north to its southern beaches and bays.

Johnathan's Landing Gold Course located in Magnolia, Delaware is a public golf course. They also have a restaurant and bar onsite.
